I've never got round to going to Waulaud's bank pathetically.
But I've not heard of Asheridge - you should put it on the website and tell us about it, that'd be interesting.
By the way, I like your positivity about going out in the winter!! I was just thinking this morning as my train tootled across the frosty misty bit by the river, it really pays to see the countryside at different times of year, you see different things. And the low angle of the sun with the lovely light this time of year helps you see things differently too, and pick out bumps in the landscape.
